Lawson Townes is a Lennar townhome community in Haw River, North Carolina, in Alamance County. It sits on Pilot Street in the 27258 zip code and is actively selling as of August 2026.
Pricing starts around $249,990, which makes it one of the least expensive new-construction options in the entire Triad–Triangle corridor.
Homes at Lawson Townes
The community is built around the Cameron plan — a two-story townhome of about 1,592 square feet with three bedrooms, two full baths and a half bath. Recent availability has run roughly $244,990 to $262,990 depending on homesite.
Two-story townhomes at this size and price are increasingly rare. For a first purchase, the arithmetic against renting in Burlington or Greensboro is worth actually running rather than assuming — at this price point it frequently favours buying, and that is not true everywhere in this market.
Living in Haw River
Haw River is a small Alamance County town on the river of the same name, immediately east of Graham and Burlington. It is genuinely small, and the practical reality is that Burlington supplies most shopping, dining and services, a few minutes west.
The river itself is the local draw, with paddling and the Haw River Trail running through the area. Historic downtown Haw River has been slowly redeveloping around the old mill.
As with Sagecroft nearby, the corridor position matters: I-40/85 puts Greensboro and Durham each roughly forty minutes away, so two very different job markets are reachable from one address.
Who It Fits
Lawson Townes suits first-time buyers, and buyers who want to own rather than rent while working in Burlington, Greensboro or the Triangle. It also suits investors, though anyone buying to rent should confirm the association’s leasing restrictions in writing before going under contract — new townhome communities often cap the number of rentals, and that cap can be reached.
It is not the right fit if you want space, land or a walkable town centre with services. Haw River is small in a way that is worth experiencing before you commit to it.
